Acidocalcisome-Mitochondrion Membrane Contact Sites in Trypanosoma brucei
Membrane contact sites are regions of close apposition between two organelles, typically less than 30 nanometers apart, that facilitate transfer of biomolecules.

Dynamic disorder is crucial for mitochondrial protein import
Abstract The import of proteins into mitochondria poses fundamental mechanistic challenges: aggregation‐prone precursor proteins must be maintained in aqueous compartments and threaded through narrow pores without becoming stuck or mislocalized. Recent evidence from mitochondrial protein import studies and other chaperone systems underscores the ...

THE DURATION OF TRYPANOSOME INFECTIONS [PDF]
I. INTRODUCTION It is well known that trypanosomes may be absent for long periods from the peripheral blood of an animal or of a person suffering from an infection by trypanosomes, and that although no treatment has been given. It also frequently happens that the parasites may reappear, after a more or less lengthy absence, in the blood of persons or ...

Abstract Mitochondrial cristae architecture is central for optimal oxidative phosphorylation and a healthy mitochondrial physiology. The intricate architecture of the inner mitochondrial membrane relies on protein complexes that compartmentalize the membrane by imposing membrane curvature, forming membrane contact sites or membrane subdomains ...

Zaprionus kolodkinae flies carry a maternally inherited ixodetis clade Spiroplasma that protects its host against wasp attack but has low overall physiological impact. Genome analysis presented a set of known symbiosis‐relevant effectors, and one encoding—a ricin B domain protein—that is novel to this Spiroplasma genome.

Standardization of bovine macrophage monolayers and isolation and culture of trypanosomes
We describe a method for culturing over 90% pure bovine macrophages from peripheral blood mononuclear cells separated with Nycoprep. The cells were cultured for 12 days and then stained with esterase and with anti CD14 to test for purity.

Tsetse flies (Glossina sp.) that transmit trypanosomes causing human (and animal) African trypanosomiasis (HAT and AAT, respectively) harbor symbiotic microorganisms, including the obligate primary symbiont Wigglesworthia glossinidia.

Multiorgan Dysfunction Caused by Travel-associated African Trypanosomiasis
We describe a case of multiorgan dysfunction secondary to Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense infection acquired on safari in Zambia. This case was one of several recently reported to ProMED-mail in persons who had traveled to this region.
